Chinese massage is less known in it’s traditional sense. But it is based on over two thousand years of medical practice, under the TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) principle. Within are included numerous forms of medical practice, such as herbal medicine, exercise, dietary therapy as well as acupuncture and massage known as “Tui Na” in Chinese. This ancient medical practice is practiced throughout the world and has gained status as one of the most popular forms of massage today. However, it’s true healing power differs in strength and quality depending on the masseur. Some of the most skillful practioners are either difficult to find or hard to get an appointment with. While some seek pleasure and reduced fatigue from the experience, there is a whole spiritual level to it that is often unknown. Based on the concept of life energy known as “Qi”, a true healing process can begin.

While TCM itself is not a well documented practice and many of it’s uses of endangered species such as shark fin soup are highly questioned by modern science. Best practiced forms are trained for tens of years and while the methods of healing are constantly debated, it is obvious that meeting with a master of Chinese massage is a life changing event. While I would love to just give you an address to find such professionals with the true healing power in their hands, it is not so easy to find them. The best I can do is suggest visiting the capital city of Beijing which is one of the focal points of traditional massage practices, where the discipline is still being maintained in it’s pursest, diciplined form. Going to just any massage parlor is not going to do it however, to get a good recommendation I would also suggest asking from the guide to Beijing massage and foot spa which is a helpful service for finding quality services in the city.

Equally whole body massage as well as foot massage is very effective. Both are connected to the accupuncture points in your body, that are located along the meridian lines. These lines are like channels of energy, that transport the life energy “Qi” (or sometimes called Chi) throughout your body. According to TCM, if this energy is blocked or does not flow well, it can lead to many different kinds of deseases or just stress, and other mental problems. It is the very foundation of our well being that keeps the well known Yin & Yang energies that the “Qi” is composed of, in balance. This is why when the practice is applied the the feet, it is not such a pleasurable experience as many might think. Of course some spas & parlors have made it more comfortable to foreign visitors, which is not the real thing. A truly authentic foot massage for example can hurt quite a lot, as they say “no pain is no gain”.

This system effects the way people think and behave in life. While western medicine recognised desease as something possibly life threatening or disabling if left untreated. It is common notion in China that the perfect flow of bodily energies is difficult to attain. This is why these massage techniques that target the blocks in your body, not only cures disease but promotes well being on a totally new energy level. It is a transforming experience at best and must be experienced first hand to understand. Everyone will have different resulsts depending on the readyness of the mind and body. However, while this is an introduction to traditional Chinese massage, there is really no limit to how far you can go with it.

Tantric healing conjures up a number of ideas and interpretations. The association most seen, is that of sexual healing and practice. As human beings we are innately sexual; meaning, we crave human connection. Although, our sexual nature is created due tour need for energy and connection.

This concept can also be understood as a spiritual/physical need to connect with energy.

Due to our spiritual/physical need, it is extremely important to understand three elements that make up the core of Tantric Healing – The science of Tantra, connective energy and the ancient Ayurveda practice that created and continued this healing work for thousands of years.

What is Tantra?

Tantra is the science of energy and consciousness. Based on this rationale, it is easy to see why tantric healing, includes offering one self’s energy, physical and mental.

Connecting Energy

Energy is one thing that cannot be destroyed, one can only rise above. This is because energy is alive. Ultimately, energy creates. What it creates is up to you.

As spiritually conscious beings, our energy is being accepted by others, meanwhile we are unconsciously accepted theirs. The beauty of Tantric healing is that right energy is being given and accepted for your conscious elevation. This is the source of healing.

Tantric healing is even more so powerful when two or more put that same healing energy into the treatment. (This applies to hands on energy healing or sexual tantric healing.)

Essentially, it is a practice of altering energy with higher vibrations and spiritual consciousness.

Ayurveda Treatments & Modern Healing

Ayurveda, the “knowledge of living” has been practiced for thousands of years. Many of the same elements have been revitalized in the western world’s yoga practice.

Here is why this fact is important to note:

There are a handful of various styles of Tantric healing are available today… right now. I would be remiss not to highly recommend trying this ancient and effective form of healing.

Whatever specific form of healing you choose, remember Tantric healing heals you at your very core, your energy, and your spiritual consciousness.

I have often been making different kinds of purchases online, of products that I am interested in, in the field of spirituality and goddess goods. But only lately, I discovered that there is a much more affordable way of obtaining these things. And that is the popular Amazon store. Just recently I bought the Osho tarrot cards which are terrific. Turned out, that some of the so called spiritual specilized online shops out there are just way too expensive. I have no problem supporting a business with a common cause, but when it abuses the benefit without giving equal value to the experience.. it’s just something I cannot digest that easily. So, I have turned to Amazon which hasn’t been entirely non-problematic either. But at least I can more or less trust on the level of price and that they deliver fast with an amazing collection of goods. You could say, that it’s like a match made in heaven. Us spiritually aware beings and an online store that acts like a machine god in an unknown warehouse in an unknown locatation in the US.

The slightly problematic part, was the review system which I could not always trust. At times, you could see such great reviews but when you actually got the product.. it was just something tlese. Turns out that this is a sort of a scam which is actively happening within the store. So, that’s why I wanted to find out the answer to the very important question: Can I trust Amazon? Well, turns out that I can with the right tricks that can give me the confidence to investigate on the sellers. And not just the sellers, but especially the reviews.

By going through the simple steps in the linked article which I very much recommend reading before doing pretty much any purchase there, you can find out if it’s legimate or not. These scammers are using all kinds of techniques which are repeated over and over. This is their weak spot of course, and spending a bit of time checking out the review profiles and so on, you can find out that someone is targeting Amazon in an agressive way. Anyway, probably most of the people that go into these false believes are not that good in protecting their online rights on the internet. Nevertheless everyone should be educated in the area. If you are into spiritual stuff or not. Because once you cross this barrier of can you or can you not trust them, the whole shopping experience on Amazon becomes very rewarding.

If you have any similar experiences, or want to recommend interesting products related to things like tantric healing, love and sexual health. Please, don’t hesitate to give a shout in the comments section so that we can all become just a little bit aware. Let’s trust each other, and go the path forward together. I know some people who have denied capitalism but I assure you, there are plenty of these products that are necessary to aid spiritual development. So let’s get our hands together and have a safe as well as fun experience shopping at Amazon.

Thanks for listening and watch out for the next article, about tantra!

I have had yet again, had the great honor of witnessing the vast and fertile power of the ancient show atmosphere in China. This time in the old capital, known as Xi’an. If you have never visited there, I will recommend it to anyone who is interested in the power of the Chinese goddess that is truly remarkable. Please enjoy this enchanting description of the show!

Tang Dynasty Show Dinner & Show

There are many theater restaurants in Xi’an that showcase the Tang Dynasty Show and Dinner. The traditional shows and plays offer a unique combination of Tang Dynasty form of dance and music and an insight into ancient Chinese history along with a delectable dinner fit for kings. People from all over the world have come to this spectacular show for many decades and gone back home with eclectic memories.

Xi’an was the capital city of many ancient dynasties in China that date back to as far as 1070 BC. The city has been famous for being instrumental in restoring the rich cultural heritage of the Chinese Middle Kingdom. Popularly regarded as the natural museum of Chinese history, Xi’an is home to thousands of mausoleums and ruins, the renowned terracotta warriors, remains of ancient architecture and art, and tombs of ancient emperors. The Tang Dynasty Show: Dinner & Show, beautifully articulates this rich culture and history in a contemporary dance and song format. The ambience at the theaters also compliments the mood of the show which will take you back to 600 to 900 AD, the height of the Tang Dynasty.

The show also imbibes other cultural aspects of those times, including the exotic traditions that were brought in by travelers, indigenous tribes, and merchants along the Silk route. The distinctive cultures of these travelers got assimilated with the ancient civilization thereby creating one of the most prosperous and progressive times in Xi’an.

The Tang Dynasty Show

The Tang Dynasty dance and dinner show features traditional and powerful folk dances which were originally created as a means of pleasing the gods during the ancient era. These sacrificial rituals and folk dances composed of graceful movements and enchanting prayers that eventually turned into a rhythmic form of art. The show also features drums, bells, and zithers, etc., which are authentic musical instruments from the Tang Dynasty era, thereby helping create a musical extravaganza that is not only fun and enjoyable, but also authentic.

All the artists involved in the performance are highly skilled and trained professionals. They are renowned all over the world for presenting the richness and grandeur of the Tang Dynasty era on the stage with ultimate precision and accuracy. The musicians on the show are also masters of their art; they can expertly play a variety of western and Chinese instruments including percussion instruments.

Some of the acts in the performance include a sorcerer’s dance/the Da Nuo, an instrumental ensemble from the Tang Dynasty, the rainbow dance in exquisite and fertile costumes, an ancient cultural dance performance, the triumphal dance of the warriors, a traditional musical piece that extols the beauty of early spring, and a clog dance/the Ta Ge.

The Tang Dynasty Dinner

The dinner is before the show. It usually begins with a dumpling banquet of different shaped and sized handmade dumplings that are full of unique veggie and meat combinations.

I wanted to get to the topic of my second favorite, “god like” acrobatics show in Beijing. In this incredible city, there is another absolutely mind boggling performance known as the Chaoyang Acrobatic Show, which gets people going and finding love yet again. As I mentioned before about the argument of which god is the best, at Chaoyang Theatre it is yet another debate that is better left without words. When I first saw the performance at the Tiandi Theatre, I was speechless. Now having experienced the second show highlight of the town, I am speechless and stunned.

Also here you can smell how Chinese history has developed a long way to bring you this amazing performance. Not just a commercial blown up event, but a true meeting of the god and goddess. A well balance performance with male and female actors that are extremely talented. All in good flavor of Yin & Yang that brings authentic love to the performing stage! Coming to see the acrobatics is like a pilgrimidge for some, at least for the Chinese portion of the audience. Perhaps many foreigners have yet to realise the significance of this variety show which gives us hope and shows us how you need meditation to find extremes in life.

I often talk about topics like tantric healing, or sexual health and other sexuality issues amongst love itself. But I can say that it is the very energy of the water, the sexual energy that enables the acrobats do these feats. I never consider myself as some kind of a sex goddess, but just understanding and accepting that force that is even greater than us, unites the power of the world gods into one fertile power. Yet this massive energy is only the beginning and rises up your spine, through all the chakras from your feet to your crown chakra in the head.

Having passed some obstacles of the mind and being closer to ones true godlike being, I can say that the actors here have achieved a similar stage in life. One interesting aspect is of course, that this massive skill is left unnoticed by most spectators. But that is the way, where the truly enlightened will never get the recognisition that they would deserve. In fact, no recognisition is really needed, because having achieved the hightened state of being is rewarding in itself.

Without a doubt, these Chaoyang Acrobatics in Beijing are not going to use the same words for what I am explaining here. Perhaps for them it’s just a mindless act, where they don’t need to put words and which is exactly why they have realised perhaps more than any other performing artist known to man. This is the ultimate act of love because it is without condition and pure. Huge respect for this ancient Chinese form of art which should be mandatory on any itinerary in Beijing or anywhere in China. Go and check out the Chaoyang Theatre show and you will not be dissapointed. I promise you all.

Not so many of you might know about Chinese mythology. What I can assure all my readers of, that there is a tremendously old and historical ancient past of different gods and goddesses in the country. Previously known as the “Middle Kingdom” because of it’s centralised proximity within the world, or at least what was believed to be so the time. This kingdom, is filled with paradox and mystery which makes it one of the most fascinating countries to study their poetric souls. The philosophy behind this goddess rich path is a sublime philosophy that is sometimes even hard to grasp by those who spend their whole lives studying it.

There are several primitive folk religions that reigned throughout the land, from Confucious thinking to Daoism which is another magical belief filled with fascinating rituals. Not to forget Buddhism of course, but it’s just one of the many that have crossed through the multicultural landscape of the red republic.

What I love about Chinese gods and goddesses is that they are “deified humans”, much like in ancient Greek mythology. Which means of course that they are prone to mistakes just as we are, with emotions such as jealousy and greek which are not considered godly of emotions.

It is my strong belief that these kinds of emotions that could be considered as useless in their pure meaningless are in fact important to us all. They are simple stages or paths that lead us to a higher enlightement. Understanding this, has traditionally given root to enlightened beings such as Buddha himself.

With this I close by greeting to the great Chinese goddesses and deities, that I adore so much. Shangdi, Tianhou, Mu Gong, Bixia Yuanjin, Yen-lo-wang, Yu-huang and many more. It is as if the world and universe itself was created by these rulers of earth from China. In a sense, it is exactly the truth.

All of us are set on a path of finding ourselves, it’s an inevitable part of our lives. Soon after we are born, we start looking for it. It gives us the power to become whoever we are. But often enough, there are many misunderstandings when people around us try to shape us and makes us something that we are not by nature. Who ever said, that there is no such thing as god or goddess is probably quite dissolutioned. And that very dissolution is something that people use to reflect the very thing that could free them from being conditioned to being someone else.

To be true to yourself is a difficult task, when one thinks that it is. But it is absolutely necessary inorder to find happiness in this world, that creates divition and wars.. so that people would be distracted from their inner being. It is calling for everyone, and most of lives energy has to be put into the very rejection of oneself to be able to maintain it. It’s a sad state of affairs, with more and more people looking for an answer to.

But the problem lies in finding an external solution for the problem, which can only replace a problem with another. Being true to yourself, one must go inside and look into the very cause of all misery and problems. Which despite being conditioned to, onself can be only held responsable to. Just accepting that very essence of staying true and taking responsability takes a huge step the right way.

Ultimately each step must be walked by onself, and is different for each person. That is however one of the most beautiful things about life. So I encourage everyone to find their god, or goddess that is inside the very thing we call “yourself”. Good luck and happy searching.

There are many gods in this world, and people seem to argue over which one is the most powerful, or the best. While the fact that there can only be one god, is in a way correct. The argument over which one is absolutely false. It’s simply a way for humans to feel confident over their incompetence to thrive their lives to happiness, which ultimately is each ones own responsibility. The one god, or goddess that I am talking about is you, me and everyone, as well as everything. It is the all powerful force, that is accessable to all human beings, plants and animals in this world. To tap into it, gives you real freedom to explore human consciousness and achieve things in life that make it worth living. Competition of any kind, between religion or acrobatic theatre is not necessary and only for those who are weak.

The world is full of different kinds of gods, made by man. But the one god or goddess is that which covers the whole world. Whenever I find examples of people who have embraced this tremendous force, I take not and study their ways. It’s always good to stay humble even if you achieve as incredible things as the Tiandi Theatre in Beijing has over the course of their acrobatic lifetime. Within Chinese history, the tradition has been that only those who forget pride and become humble within the forces of greater gods, one can really achieve the skill that is needed to become an acrobatic performer. Chinese tradition has indeed set the par of skill within this area of theatrical performance as high as it can be. Which is why the westerners could never replicated the feats, or reach the level of enlightement that has given the Beijing acrobats a power of gods to become one of the leading such nightlife venues.

Often enough, best examples are found in the most ordinary examples and even in commercial areas. For the performers at the Tiandi Theatre, money is definitely now the thriving power. Especially since wage is so low, that doing the incredible stage performance as many times as once a day without much holiday.. one needs to be passionate about their work and to entertain foreigners who come to Beijing. If you don’t believe me, just go there yourself and witness the true marvel of Chinese acrobatics.

There are others too which I will talk about, and cover in later posts. Until then, let us dream and embrace the world gods that are everyone and us all. To witness this, head on Beijing and don’t be afraid!

–“Everything is sacred”, is something you often hear being said and it feels right. But when ones energy is not balanced, it often tends to attract forces outside of oneself. But in fact, that most sacred place to start with is your own temple. The reason being that this very temple is the doorway to all the other temples of this world and beyond. But when one is distracted by the burden of daily life and the mind, it is difficult to center and enter this almost forgotten but sacred pathway. Simply to approach this temple of the goddess is already a huge step towards happiness and being contempt.

Did you ever hear someone say to you, that you need to do something in order to become a better person. It is that very dangerous thought, that others are somehow responsable that diverts us from the most difficult and important aspect of our lives. Which is within ourselves, and contains everything that we ever need in our lives. All the manifests outwards, is a mere reflection and a natural outcome of the love that has been found from within ourselves. It is a concept that needs to frames, and there is no limit to the endless possibilities of its manifestation.

That’s why I suggest people not to forget ones own temple, but at the same time to find their own path. If this path leads you outside of yourself, it wants to teach you something. If going inwards feels unconfortable, it wants to teach you something. No matter what the action, it’s all the manifestation of that very inner being. It makes us what we are, and it should not be forgotten to say the least.

This blog sets out to break boundaries and teach concepts that take no limit in discovering the inner workings of man, and it’s most inner being. It’s always an ongoing journey with words, until one day you don’t need words anymore. Of course, this is a day that is yet to come for most of us and for that we exist in bringing this message.

Speaking of messages, there are so many misunderstandings in this world. And we couldn’t think of a better example than our dear Ganesha. The virtuous god that has become one of the major targets of worship. But if you ask the Indians what they are worshopping, if you are a foreigner they will simply explain it to be the money god. Because Ganesha is someone who grants your wishes, and the biggest wish in modern day society is wealth, money and the power that comes with it.

The issue is two fold as these Ganesha worshipping Indians are actually rather sincere. In other countries you worship money, without saying and stating it out loud. If that is what you have set out to do in life, such as the most of the Indian population seems to have done.. then that is better to be said as what it is and not try to hide it in any way.

But Ganesha Consciousness originally and in it’s essense is something quite opposite to the artificial value of money. Ganesha is a protector and someone that connects our souls with this universe. In our history, the biggest wish was to connect with nature and become enlightened. Something that could not be further from money. The truth behind Ganesha Consciousness can only be experienced, when one throws away the greed and need for money itself. Because wish, is something that if someone truly wishes for in a spiritual level cannot be made out of paper. It will be made out of the universe, and surpass anything that has artificual value.
